<jxself>er; that was supposed to be "wonderful" <civodul>jxself: the kernel config seems to work fine, thanks! <civodul>it puts more pressure on having a working udev <jxself>Or maybe everything will be ready by then and I can just go make the changes myself... :) <civodul>so yes, you may be able to make the changes yourself ;-) <atheia>Exciting news, the technology preview — turns out I don't have a 64 bit laptop for testing at the moment :-( ***llida is now known as gry

<phant0mas>youpi said that for now we could use glibc without nscd <civodul>sneek: later say phant0mas yes, ok to use libc without nscd support <civodul>sneek: later tell phant0mas yes, ok to use libc without nscd support <alezost>is a full name (like "guile-2.0.11") a proper way to identify a package? <alezost>I mean if I need to get a particular package, (find-packages-by-name "guile" "2.0.11") is the best choice. Am I right? <alezost>yes, I'm working on Emacs UI for Guix and I just want to be sure that there is no better way to identify a package. As I can see some packages are duplicated in their own <package>.scm and in base.scm files <davexunit>alezost: oh you're working on that? I am *really* looking forward to that. <davexunit>but yeah, a package "foo" can be a variable defined in many modules. <davexunit>and we package a few different versions of guile <civodul>alezost: package + version should be OK, but there can be several packages with the same name and version <civodul>glad you're already working on this, BTW :-) <alezost>I think I'll publish some usable version next week so that people could see how it looks like. <bavier>civodul: I was looking at the glib failure on i686 <bavier>it's a strange failure; looks like perhaps a floating-point rounding error <davexunit>oh, speaking of i686, I was unable to build the installation image for i686. I don't have the backtrace handy right now, but I'll try to send it to the list later. <bavier>it would be easy enough to get a patch that lets glib build, but it'd be nice to understand the actual problem. <civodul>bavier: if you have enough details, perhaps you could report it upstream, and skip it locally for now? <civodul>or you could post the details on the list before sending upstream, just to see <bavier>I'll post some details to the list soon. <civodul>davexunit: would be cool if you could send the details, indeed <sneek>Welcome back phant0mas, you have 1 message. <sneek>phant0mas, civodul says: yes, ok to use libc without nscd support <davexunit>a thought just popped into my head: what does the existence of guix mean for the guile guildhall? <davexunit>I imagine we'll have all the guile libs available via guix, but I guess guildhall will still be useful to those that aren't guix users. <civodul>davexunit: yeah, for non-Guix users, it's still convenient to have the guildhall, i think ***grasshop` is now known as grasshopprWhoppr
